• How public should a public key be allowed to become?

  - by Peter Coulton

  I have a script that I use to setup new slices on slicehost and one of the steps is to add my public key to the authorized_keys file. At the moment I scp a key manually, but ideally I would have the script download the key. So if my public key was very public what's the worst that could happen ? :)

• USB Ports not working on new ASUS Z87 PRO motherboard

  - by Peter Coulton

  3 of the six USB ports on the back on my new ASUS Z87 PRO motherboard are not functioning properly. They do seem to deliver power, just don't seem to function for data (devices attached in these ports are detected by windows, or usable in UEFI) I think I'm right in saying that the top 4 ports (3 of which aren't working) run off an additional USB controller (not from the Z87 chipset) if that makes any difference. I'm pretty sure that I'll just have to return it, but any advice on diagnosing the problem would be welcome.

• Does RSI affect legs?

  - by Peter Coulton

  Wikipedia says that RSI is also called 'work related upper limb disorder', but I'm getting serious knee pain when I'm sat working for long periods (18+ hours). Has anyone else experienced this, and have you found a solution?

• Shell script argument parsing

  - by Peter Coulton

  There are a number of questions about this sort of thing but lets imagine we are targeting a generic Linux system with both getopt and getopts installed (not that we'll use either, but they seem popular) How do I parse both long (--example | --example simple-option) and short argruments (-e | -esimple-example | -e simple-example)

• How do I clone all remote branches with Git?

  - by Peter Coulton

  I have a master and a dev branch, both pushed to github, I've cloned, pulled, fetched, but I remain unable to get anything other than the master branch back. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but I have RTM any I'm getting no joy at all.

• Difference between piping a file to sh and calling a shell file

  - by Peter Coulton

  This is what was trying to do: $ wget -qO- www.example.com/script.sh | sh which quietly downloads the script and prints it to stdout which is then piped to sh. This unfortunately doesn't quite work, failing to wait for user input a various points, aswell as a few syntax errors. This is what actually works: $ wget -qOscript www.example.com/script.sh && chmod +x ./script && ./script But what's the difference? I'm thinking maybe piping the file doesn't execute the file, but rather executes each line individually, but I'm new to this kind of thing so I don't know.

• PHP Casting as Object type in foreach Loop

  - by Coulton

  Within the following code, $quiz_object->personalities contains an array of Personality() objects. // Loop through each personality that exists for the quiz foreach($quiz_object->personalities AS $existing_personality) { // Show all of the existing personalities echo $existing_personality->GetQuizMakerPersonalityHTML(); } How do I "cast" (I think that's the right word) my variable $existing_personality within the foreach loop as the object type? I wish to do this so that when I type $existing_personality->, I get the list of public functions available for that object type. At the moment, Zend doesn't know that it refers to a Personality object within the loop.
